>90% of new business apps are cloud or mobile

90% of new innovation for accounting software add-ons misses 90% of the potential market.

Vancouver, BC (PRWEB)January 29, 2015

With Suntico, developers with exciting mobile and web business apps will soon be able to connect their apps to the Sage 50 Accounting systems already in use by 500,000 Canadian companies. It will provide these small to medium sized business with a much greater choice of solutions for improved productivity while protecting their investment in their Sage accounting software.

“More than 90% of new business applications are written for cloud or mobile deployment, yet more than 90% of businesses today are using on-premises accounting software”. says Hugh Johnson, SVP Business Development at Suntico. “So 90% of new innovation for accounting software add-ons misses 90% of the potential market. This is sad. I am particularly looking for developers with compelling apps for CRM, e-commerce, warehousing & shipping, payments, scheduling and project management”.

This new API uses a JSON Web Token (JWT) to represent the items such as Accounts, Customers, Vendors, Employees, Payments, Receipts, Invoices, Orders and Products.

The API will be free to use for developers, but they will need to apply and be accepted into the program. The API will shortly be available in beta release to selected developers.
